EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph from 1882 depicts a fierce battle scene between Cimbric women and Roman soldiers. The Cimbri, a tribe hailing from Northern Europe, joined forces with the Teutones and Ambrones to pose a significant threat to the Roman Republic during the late 2nd century BC. Believed to be of Germanic or Celtic origin, these brave women defended their wagon fort against the invading Romans. The image showcases the strength and determination of these Cimbric women as they stand tall in defense of their people. With weapons in hand, they fiercely protect their wagons while engaging in combat with well-trained Roman soldiers. This historical moment is beautifully captured by an unknown English artist from the 19th century. The lithograph is part of a private collection and was originally featured in "A Pictorial History of the World's Great Nations" by Charlotte Mary Yonge published in New York in 1882. It provides us with a glimpse into this ancient conflict that took place centuries ago. Through this artwork, we are reminded of the resilience and bravery exhibited by individuals throughout history who fought for their freedom and way of life. The print serves as both a visual testament to human courage as well as an important historical document showcasing one chapter in our collective past.
